The very effective anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) is known to have cardiotoxic side effects, which could be accompanied by autonomic modulation. Autonomic disbalance might even an initiating mechanism underlying DOX-induced cardiotoxicity and can studied noninvasively the analysis of heart rate variability (HRV). A number strategies been assessed predict chemotherapy-induced cardiac dysfunction while HRV, a potential detecting tool, has not yet tested. Thus, we aimed determine effect DOX...
We aimed to evaluate hemodynamic parameters in the cutaneous microcirculation during recovery graded dynamic exercise performed on a cycloergometer by using two distinctive methods: high-frequency ultrasound Doppler flowmetry (UDF) and laser fluxmetry (LDF). Regarding UDF, medium linear blood flow velocity (Vam) was estimated, expressed absolute units (cm/s) whereas assessed LDF registered arbitrary perfusion (PU). compared corresponding values obtained UDF LDF, respectively, every 20 s...
This study investigated the responses of skin blood flow (SkBF) in glabrous and nonglabrous to graded submaximal dynamic exercise its recovery. We enrolled eight healthy young men with comparable maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max). Laser-Doppler flux (LDF) was assessed on finger pulp (glabrous site) volar forearm (nonglabrous simultaneously temperature, heart rate pressure; cutaneous vascular conductance (CVC) calculated. Subjects were monitored before (baseline), during 25 minutes after...
Wavelet analysis (WA) provides superior time-frequency decomposition of complex signals than conventional spectral tools. To illustrate its usefulness in assessing transient phenomena, we applied a custom-developed WA algorithm to laser Doppler (LD) the cutaneous microcirculation measured at glabrous (finger pulp) and nonglabrous (forearm) sites during early recovery after dynamic exercise. This phase, importantly contributing establishment thermal homeostasis exercise cessation, has not...
This study investigated the effect of prolonged exertion on cardiac parasympathetic (cPS) reorganization and associated aerobic performance in response to repeated short-lasting submaximal exercise bouts (SSE) performed for 7 days following exertion. In 19 recreational runners, heart rate (HR) HR variability (HRV) indices (lnRMSSD, lnHF, lnLF/HF) were monitored pre- post-submaximal graded cycling consecutive a half-marathon (HM) compared with baseline, pre-HM values. Additionally, recovery...
Recently, increased attention to breathing techniques during exercise has addressed the need for more in-depth study of ergogenic effects manipulation. The physiological phonation, as a potential tool, have not yet been studied. Thus, aim this was investigate respiratory, metabolic and hemodynamic responses phonated exhalation its impact on locomotor-respiratory entrainment in young healthy adults moderate exercise. Twenty-six young, participants were subjected peak expiratory flow (PEF)...
<h3>Background</h3> Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is the most common systemic vasculitis in adults aged 50 years or above. Annual incidence rates vary widely from 6.9–76.6 per 10<sup>5</sup> of this age group, depending on region.<sup>1</sup> <h3>Objectives</h3> To determine rate GCA our population. <h3>Methods</h3> We prospectively collected incident cases January 1st 2011 to December 31st 2012 at department rheumatology which a part an integrated secondary/tertiary university teaching...
<h3>Background</h3> Permanent visual loss, one of the most severe ischemic complications giant cell arteritis (GCA), affects 6% patients at our secondary/tertiary rheumatology center despite a fast track GCA diagnostic procedure. <h3>Objectives</h3> To determine potential clinical and laboratory markers forecasting in GCA. <h3>Methods</h3> We performed paper chart review cases diagnosed between 01.09.2011 31.12.2014. Descriptive statistics was used to describe cohort appropriate post hoc...
Aim. There are numerous reports of attenuation cutaneous blood flow (CBF) during the recovery period after a single bout exercise, but no one has investigated CBF response to consecutive short-lasting aerobic exercise (SLAE) sessions following exhaustive endurance (EEE) on daily basis, although this is commonly used training regime in recreational athletes and could cause cumulative increase that may be important for wound healing. This study examined effects EEE forearm skin (LDF), vascular...
Introduction: Sortillin-related VPS10P containing receptor (SorCS2) is expressed in neurons and other tissues during development where it mediates trafficking of target proteins between cell membrane intercellular compartments.It has also been suggested that SorCS2 modulates signal transduction.SorCS2 upregulated vascular wall under pathological conditions, e.g., atherosclerosis.The aim this study to elucidate the contribution endothelial smooth muscle function.Method: We compared mesenteric...
Purpose: Positive expiratory pressure (PEP) exhalation during exercise is reported to improve body adaptation and enhance the tolerance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Wearing mouthguards results lower oxygen consumption increased performance by increasing PEP athletes. Airway resistance expiration can be manipulated phonation. Thus, aim of our study was examine effects phonated breathing on cardiopulmonary moderate subsequent recovery. Methods: 26 young healthy...
